Adaptive autonomy refers to a suggestion for the definition of the notation 'autonomy' in mobile robotics.[1]

Human-automation interaction[edit]

The extremist idea of "eliminate the human from the field" rendered the ironies of automation[2] to the extent that the researchers in the related fields shifted the paradigm to the idea of "best-fit autonomy for the computers", to provide more humane automation solutions.

One of the first human-machine function-allocation methods was presented by P. M. Fitts in 1951, which was used in automation systems design.[3] Nevertheless, the function allocation concept remains problematic after half a century, and the basic validity of formal function allocation methods has been challenged repeatedly.[4][5][6][7]

Clarifications[edit]

The peripheral situations affect the performance of cybernetic systems; therefore, though one-shot human-centered automation (HCA) designs might provide better results than the systems designed based on the "automate it as possible" philosophy; however, these designs fail to maintain the advantages of the HCA designs, when the peripheral situations change.[8][9]

Consequently, the automation solutions should be smart enough to adapt the level of automation (LOA) to the changes in peripheral situations. This concept is known as adaptive automation [10] or adjustable autonomy;[11] however, the term "adaptive autonomy" (AA)[12][13][14] is widely considered more appropriate to prevent confusion with the phrases like adaptive control and adaptive automation in systems control terminology.
